Here’s Why David Einhorn is Suing Apple

David Einhorn is hoping to start an investor revolt against Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock practices and announced that his Greenlight Capital fund was suing the country’s most valuable company. Einhorn said Apple needed to be more active in offering the company’s shareholders more value for their investments.

According to the fund manager, Greenlight has filed a lawsuit in a New York federal court to get Apple to change a proposal that would remove the company’s ability to issue “black check” preferred stock. According to Einhorn, such a proposal does not conform to regulatory rules. He also urged Apple shareholders to vote against the proposal during the company’s annual meeting later this month.
